Fox: (speaking into green bandana held in hand):
This story, this legend... it's not really mine.
Without you, there wouldn't have been me.
Maybe I can change the world, and with it, bring a better cause.
Thank you my friend. I'll forever be in your debt.
[Places bandana next to armor, chestplate has an insignia with a skull and a scratched off '573' branding]

Is to what this is hinting at too obvious?
I'm working on a stealth action sci-fi RPG thing. The protagonist is a fox, the whole thing is about political correctness gone *way too far*, and about preserving identity.

'all i can get from it is that the protagonists best friend/partner dies '
The protagonist's mentor does, and the mentor is a snake. Some backstory I'll come up with about how the fox has been trained by the snake for the majority of his life, as a part of this covert operations group or something.
Maybe if I place a cardboard box somewhere visible but off in the scene, this becomes more obvious to what I'm referring to. The player character becomes an author avatar in this scene.
No accidental details!

YES
YES IT IS
How much did I have to reveal before it became clear?
The whole scene is a homage to Hideo Kojima of course, about a third of the way through during a mission called "Truths", (i won't spoil what I'm working on so far, but it sets up the backstory for the characters and whatever, and reveals the truth of why there are no human characters in the whole game, despite shadowy human-like figures being present in the introduction. Basically the whole chapter amounts to doomsday because of political correctness going too far, and that the only way to "preserve humanity" was to sent shuttles to andromeda with clones and have robots teach them how to be human + whatever, and that didn't work out because the terraforming device mixed samples and data and whatever, creating these anthropomorphic animal characters, also because I'm too lazy to go make human models and would rather copy/paste easy to reuse assets and do color swaps for differences between foxes/wolves/dogs/whatever. Obviously that didn't work out, because these now spacefaring animal-things are having the exact same problem.)
I'm trying to keep this feeling "Metal geary" right. Something with the same sort of 'serious but not taking itself too serious' kind of thing.

As soon as I read fox and you kind of gave a "walkie-talkie" effect it reminded me of MGS.
FOXHOUND and Grey Fox, yaknow. |

Mm
Yeah, the symbols used are pretty clever imo, I'm not sure if anyone who's not into Metal Gear will pick up on them.
Obviously the snake is Snake, and thus by extension Big Boss, who well, you know:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b8xAKEZukGw&t=42s (42 seconds in if you're on R+)
'573' is a number which when pronounced in Japanese, is pronounced like 'gonanamitsu', which sounds like 'Ko - Na (na) - Mi'.
The skull is a reference to the various organizations throughout Metal Gear.
etc. etc.
